I have been using PSI for a number of years, with great results. Recommended it to everyone I know. About a month or so ago it stopped working properly. It would get hung on the "Connecting to internet" screen. So I thought I would try the OSI. That worked just fine for the past month or so ... until now!

Last night I decided to check the "Thorough inspection" box. I always have done the thorough inspection, which lasts an hour or so, but just this week decided to try a "quick" inspection.
Well, this time the thorough inspection ran all night and is still running, so I guess that made no difference.

Interesting that I should find this recommendation in my email just last night:http://tinyurl.com/85hn6h2
Makes me wonder if I am not the only one having issues with Secunia....

OK so we have a winner!
I use Firefox and it always tells me when there's a new version, but apparently this time around it did not. I updated (from 12 to 13), ran the scan and ... completed in 46 seconds!
Thanks for sticking with me and helping me get this sorted out.
